[QUOTE="RomanGreekCoin3, post: 3139744, member: 96564"]Yes and no. I think Caesarian was Co- Pharoah with Cleopatra for a short while.- But it was kinda meaningless since Egypt was a vassal( client state) of the Roman Republic during this time. Mark Antony was getting seduced by Cleopatra so she and her Son can take over part of the Roman Republic after Mark Antony died After the Battle of Actium, Antony and Cleopatra committed suicide, Augustus killed Caesarian and thus became the new Pharoah of Egypt- turning the country into a true province of Rome. Right before this Caesarian was more of a puppet co ruler with his mom .( and she was kind of a puppet ruler for her husband Mark Antony) Caesarian was the last Pharoah( with that title) but he was too young to control anything really Lets just say Cleopatra was the last [B]active[/B] ( defacto) leader of Egypt before it became a province of Rome. This is why she fought with Antony against Octavian and Agrippa during the Battle of Actium, and Caesarian had nothing to do with it. She was pulling the strings. Technically you are correct. Officially you are not Historians consider Cleopatra to be the true Pharoah at the time, even though she tried to pass the baton to her young son she had with Julius Caesar[/QUOTE]
